Aug 22, 2009 750 mL bottle courtesy of CrellMoset. Batch 001. Thanks! Pours a clear ruby-strawberry color with a medium head. Fair head retention and lacing. Dark malty aroma with raisins, toasted coconut, molasses, slight alcohol. The taste seems a bit weak with notes of molasses and raisin. Muted hops. Thin-medium bodied and it just borders on watery.

Jul 11, 2009 Bottle was nearly 2 years old, but much smoother than the regular bock. Still a deep copper color with a nice tan head. Breaddy maltly aroma. Taste was full and smooth. A slight roasty sweet flavor. Creamy and very drinkable. Kudos to the reserve

Mar 31, 2009 Batch 001 purchased at Rozi’s in Lakewood. The pour gave a really hazy murky muddy brown with almost no head. The flavor is quite earthy for a lager, and with good bitterness at the end. The aroma is a pretty light woody earth scent with a medium caramel malt scent. The flavor is pretty enjoyable, not too complex and has the good ol Penn brewery flavor. Its pretty solid with chewy malt, but not to clowying. Palate is a little thin, and it ends rather nicely with a little bit of crispness.

Mar 27, 2009 Bottle. Pours a dark brown color, medium tan head. The nose is a malt bomb wtih some yeast, bread, crackers, few spices and a dash of hops. Flavor is very malty with some spice notes. A bit thin on the palate.

Jan 6, 2009 Pours a dark walnut with orange hues in a snifter. Pale offwhite head, dissipates quickly. Toasty malt aroma, with redfruits to match. Spicy flavor, with some roasty toasty goodness. Tangy aftertaste what wasn’t all too pleasing, some metallic. Overall, decent.
